Okay!

It won't be a long post. Basically, I had given up totally. To my surprise, I only gained back 6 lbs over a month or so. I was in the Gym 6 days a weeks but ate whatever( not badly actually, I lost my taste for junkfood).
I also got a little therapy ...I needed this....I simply had way to many "Fattitudes" to be succesful at dieting. I still have some of them...but I'm working on getting rid of them.
So here I am.
I want to give Medifat my very last but most earnest and sincere push in an attempt to reach my goal.
I have too. Being overweight is not an option. This weight must come off. I need you guys along the way...I thought I could just go on on my own but realised that struggling alone is not a good thing.
So I am back, I am humbled, more calmed down from the therapy and ready to give it one last shot.
I have truly missed you guys and I am glad to be back among you all.

your long lost friend,

Nelly

Hi All --- Missing this like crazy...

FIRST THING - DO NOT EVER BE DETERRED FROM YOUR PROGRAM EVEN IF IT MEANS SKIPPING A CRUISE!!!!!!! My plan was perfect - I never cheated and that was for 4 straight months --- getting that level of losing discipline back is a -itch!!!!

I'm OK - still right at the weight I was at when I went on the cruise. I am still me-afasting. Oh, I'm drinking shakes and eating bars and keeping the weigh OFF - I really do know I can't eat like I did in the past - I really do feel better and look better and think better --- BUT I'm in a maintenance frame of mind with another 75 pounds I want to lose!!!!!

I never check into the forum anymore and I know how much that helped my success in the past SO here I am --- I want this to be the month I regain my discipline!!!! I never imagined it would be so hard ---- BUT I will do this and reading the posts of you old-timers and newbies helps me because remember ...

WE WILL DO THIS TOGETHER!!! :stroll:

Pam,

You don't know how much you just helped me! I'm getting ready to go on vacation in a few weeks and was already mentally going down the road of "well, if I exercise a lot, a should be able to at least TASTE a few bites here and there..." You have reminded me of what I already know - that gaining the memontum back once you've lost it is really hard.

So it will be the program for me. I've moved to the 5-1 plan already but will stick to it strictly, defying all temptation.

Check in often - even if you're not fully on program. It's the times we need the forum most that we're least likely to seek it.

Thanks Again!

Sylvia

Postby TamiL » August 5th, 2004, 11:21 am

Hey Girl!!
Ive been amoung the missing myself...still get on this forum every so often..but not as much as I need to be!! NELLY, PAM, MIKE....you guys were the ones who kept me coming back in the beginning...your posts were truly inspirational to me! I dont know how much weight I have put back on..a few pounds at least...but I HAVE NOT GIVEN UP!!
I just read some great posts here today...and I found my old journal and just finished DUSTING it off...perhaps if I start back doing what I did in the beginning of Medifast...I can stay on track!! its like I let myself go for a few days..then get back on track...only to stray again....
I miss the WINTER...weird I know..but there was much less vactions...and I LOVED MY SOUPS In the winter time...the fast soups that warmed my hungry tummy!! its too hot for them now...but no excuses...
PAM...good to hear from you again....
NELLY....you never gave up as our conductor....we will make it to thinville...even after more than a few detours!!
this forum has certainly grown....so many new people....its great to read the posts....very inspiring!!
KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK EVERYONE!!
;)
